Break free of the shackles of materialism

MATERIALISTIC YOU and materialistic me are together striving for satisfying our ego in this acquisitive world. In this materialistic world, a selfish heart desires for everything, which it feels can enhance ambition to become a ‘great’ personality.

There is a craving in every one of us to rise higher and higher without looking back and it does not even matter if we are trampling others and stepping on them in this process. A desire to get everything from life without paying back anything has transformed our selfless service to selfish ones. Always in the want of fake identities, man has a quenching thirst for power, which boosts his egoistic self.

Pleasures, which only last for few minutes, hours, days, months and years cannot give an eternal feel of divinity to a person because they are only restricted to the outer body and not to the inner soul. A platonic stage, where there is no place for such illusion is hard to achieve because this world has so many incessant attractions, which tend to distracts one’s mind. But still it’s also important to know that everybody is sent to earth for a reason, only one has to recognise that reason and fulfill it and make an effort to serve this selfish and materialistic world with selfless motives.

This completes the entire cycle and answers one’s presence on this earth. This truth becomes the reason to live and fight in this world. So one should just understand and answer the world. Because, in the end our body will go back to the elements of nature.
